The fact that she's The Stoic and could pass as a Bifauxnen without problems certainly helps her appearing as The Dragon.
But even for a Chief of Staff, she seems to be holding enormous executive powers on her own and having Athena's full confidence.
It's easy to underestimate her as Prime Minister Athena's loyal secretary.
Though neither a butler nor a skilled fighter, Nike in Appleseed fits this trope quite well. Not to Be Confused with Hayate the Combat Butler, although the eponymous character is definitely an example. If they come from a long line of Battle Butlers serving that family, they're in a Legacy of Service. If a Battle Butler is also referred to as a bodyguard, you can expect full blown samurai-level abilities this type of Battle Butler tends to overlap with The Dragon if their master is the Big Bad. If she does wear an appropriate maid outfit, she is a Ninja Maid. If a Battle Butler is female she will probably wear a suit, even if she is called a maid. May overlap with Almighty Janitor if said butler/servant is the only one hired in the household, but if said butler/household servant is the head servant of the household, then this trope will also overlap with Asskicking Leads to Leadership, because they are granted the position to command the other servants because they can personally protect the master of the manor. 
A household or personal servant note Often either a high-ranking one, as most actual butlers are, or the only one employed by their master who acts as a "combat effective" despite their official position having nothing to do with combat.
